Outside a BBQ joint in Manhattan. It's a good thing these guys were securely fastened to the railing, 'cos I would have had them away on their toes. Or hooves.
in context (but out of focus)

Ack! Cat, how could you? Why did I open this page? Oh, shit! Now I have to do about 5000 things that I said I would do only when I saw flying pigs. There goes my year. And you even warned me with the title... How could I be so stupid? AAAAAAAGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!

Sorry, EvilG. At least Hell hasn't frozen over. You wouldn't believe who I have to sleep with when that happens.
and if it makes you feel better, I saw pink elephants on Saturday afternoon at the Bohemian Beer Garden in Astoria.

Sorry to tell you this, but I have lived in Hell (the Arctic on a really bad day), and it's frigging cold! Frozen over is putting it lightly.

you would think that you get good a burn in the summer on the beach, but whats with freezer burn, is that good? how can you get burned in a freezer and whats with a wind burn. does the wind blow around with a lit match, no, we blow out the match, so how do you get a wind burn. i think about these things and its driving me nuts. now lets talk about nuts driving???

they should rename the restaurant, the pig with its nose in the air.
Catherine Penfold-Waxman: 18th Apr 2006 - 13:28 GMT
Jack, Aloe will take care of almost any kind of burn, so that's soothing news, right?
EvilG, as stunningly beautiful as you've shown us the artic circle to be, I believe you when you say it's Hell. It's a place that's intent on killing you. Brrrrrrrrr!

jack, wind burn is when the cold air blowing against your skin does not go so far as to cause frostbite, but instead slowly tans your skin darker. The intense sunlight from reflections off snow that is common there in the spring can also add to the tanning effect of windburn, as the -20 degree air and intense sunlight can really do a number on your skin. It is very normal up there in springtime to find Inuit hunters walking around town who have just come back from a hunting trip, with their faces tanned very dark, except this very pale area where either sunglasses or snowmobile goggles were covering part of their face. Sort of like a photo negative (remember those) of raccoons.
